Mostly for the first minutes with the app, and for anyone who never found the Toolkit. The first run is rebuilt once more. Three short screens say what the app works on and how, then you land on your real Today screen and tap the real Begin. After your first entry, the app shows you a finished answer to a harsh thought before it asks you for one, and then walks you around the four tabs, one lit control at a time. If you already use Selfworth, the next time you open it, it walks you around once too. Nothing is written and nothing is asked, and you can skip it on the first hint. Also in this release: • The three buttons on the card after the practice are explained one by one, with examples, the first time all three are there. • The question that opens the first run is plainer: what's hardest to believe about yourself? Pick two or three. • "Keep it in view" now shows how to add the widget, with the real widget on a drawn home screen and the steps in iOS's own words. • The reminder card shows the next message you would get, and suggests the time you usually practise. • The field for negative self-talk starts with "I should have…", so what goes in it is clearly about you. • Many smaller fixes throughout. The daily practice is the whole app. The rest can wait.

This release is about the moment a test goes the way the rule said it would. Until now, the result screen drew every outcome the same way: the old belief struck through, the new number in the color of a win, whichever direction it had moved. That was wrong, and it is fixed. The screen now shows what your own rating actually did, and the app says in words, for the first time: a test can go either way. Whatever happened is a reading of the rule, not a verdict on you. Alongside it: • When you design a test, the app now tells you up front that a fair test is allowed to land either way. • A rule that turns out to be partly right can now be made smaller, down to the part the tests actually support. • Creating a new rule is now three short steps, each one building on what you just wrote. Stories that keep coming back have a real home now. The story page is rebuilt, and it is a complete page even at one or two answers. When you name a story, your own existing names now sit above the empty field, because the same name is what makes a story. The Today row now surfaces a story that has come back in the last week, not just the one you have answered most often. And the Toolkit has a new door: Your stories. Also in this release: • Help at the step where you put it in words, for the moment that arrives without any. • A rating you never gave is no longer recorded: an untouched slider now visibly stays unrated instead of quietly keeping its starting value. • Logging evidence now looks out for what landed, too: someone answered, something moved, because of what you did. There is a new quality for it: It landed. • If your journal ever fails to load, the app now stops and protects the file instead of writing over it. • Many smaller fixes throughout. The daily practice is the whole app. The rest can wait.

Mostly for anyone opening Selfworth for the first time. The first run is rebuilt: it now explains what the daily practice is before asking you to do it, and each screen follows from the one before it instead of arriving out of nowhere. You write a real entry during setup and it stays in your book. The ten-question measure explains what it is, and shows you where you are starting. If you already practise, nothing changes in your day. The orientation screen now also says what was always true: logging evidence and answering a harsh thought are open any time, not only during the practice.

The first 30 days now include everything, up from 14. Long enough to take the monthly self-esteem measure twice and see for yourself whether anything moved. New words for the same work. What the app used to call your inner critic is now a harsh thought: closer to how the research talks about it, and easier to notice in an ordinary day. The daily practice asks about a hard moment and lets you say which kind it was, something you said to yourself or your nervous system in alarm. Both get a fair answer. On the alarm route the app now asks what you actually know, instead of what you would tell a friend who said it. The door into all of that is called "Answer what came up." Setting up now means doing the practice, not reading about it. You check in, write one real thing you did, and give it a quality — a real entry, kept, on your first day. Then you see a finished answer and can write one yourself if something came up. On a hard day it stops early and still counts, and you are never shown a price. Also in this update: • The weekly review is a page you can read: your own sentences, a card that opens the week as a book, and a proper ending • Your four books share one shelf. Open any of them from the cover of another • A story's chart shows both readings, how true a thought felt when you wrote it down and how it felt after you answered • The monthly measure is asked when the question is live, and then leaves you alone • If you have not answered a harsh thought yet, there is a finished example to look at first • A test you ran twice no longer needs a whole new experiment • An answer can become a belief worth testing, right where you wrote it • The Programs screen leads with the problem you recognize, not the program's name • Keep a piece close while you are writing it, instead of finding it again later • Every German line in the app has been read and approved by hand
